Help Atom Battle Lymphoma
Donation protected
Hi, My name is Allie and I'm asking for help so I can continue chemo for my sweet doggo Atom. He was diagnosed with Lymphoma at the beginning of May. The total estimated cost of treatment was quoted at $12,000.
If you know me personally, you certainly know Atom. He's tiny and mighty and vaguely resembles Master Splinter (for those of you who are TMNT fans..and also those of you who aren't but appreciate a good laugh). Atom has been my only constant over the last decade. He always swoops in to save me from emotional wreckage on my worst days and is anxious to greet me with unreasonable excitement every time I walk in the door. His cuddles are actual medicine. I have been this hero's sidekick for 10 years now and this is my chance to swoop in and buy him some extra special days together.
Your help will allow me to continue his treatments which have been 50% covered by one VERY generous individual whom I will never know how to properly thank. Atom's treatments have been very effective so far and we are making great progress! We are super optimistic that he will go into remission if we continue his chemo but we do not have the resources to do so alone. Each treatment is ~$500-$800.
We will be forever grateful for extra time with this extra special little guy!
Some Atom fun facts!
- His favorite cuddle spots are armpit crevices, knee crevices, crotches..you get it. He LOVES to be all up in your business.
- He loves a good CRONCHY snack: Apples, popcorn, carrots bits
- He hates puddles...don't you dare make him get his paws wet, he will never be more offended
- His favorite spot around the house is perched up on the back of the couch where he can gaze out the window and watch the hoodlums stroll by.
- He looks like the Rocket Dog (shoe brand) logo when he gets the zoomies and it's HILARIOUS
- He is a huge fan of snow when he's rocking his sherpa-lined snow boots. Watching him frolic and trot around in those boots is one of my top fave spectacles and I look forward to it every single year.
In short: Atom is THE BEST. Please help me buy him more time.
